The season is still fairly new and the Fortuna Liga table has to be read with caution. So far Žilina find themselves in 3rd position and Trenčín are placed 9th.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
